You know in my 10 years of dieting and weight loss to maintain healthy eating habit's, I have come across some truly bizarre eating plans.

This may include eating the same coloured foods to eating 6 hours apart, drinking only fruit juice to taking weight loss pills. You name it, its out there.

I guess some unethical people play on the desperation of others to lose weight. I don't know whether this particular 3 Day Diet fits the bill of such accusations but its probably quite appealing to most as it only lasts for three short days. The author, Jay Robb claims that if you partake in his 3 day diet you can lose up to 9 pounds over a three day period. This is quite a substantial amount of weight to lose and I do highly suspect that a lot of it would be water! Lets take a closer look at the finer details.

There is no doubt that Jay Robb is a nutritional expert in the weight loss industry. He does have a wide range of books and other weight loss products available through his website - http://www.jayrobb.com/. The official name of Jay's recent addition to his product line is called The Fruit Flush - 3 Day Detox. And whilst I am a firm believer of staying away from rapid weight loss programs, Jay's theory may be the solution, seen as it only lasts for a few days. Jay believes that fruit has natural detoxing properties and benefits for healthy living. You could consider using his 3 Day Diet to prepare your body for longer term healthy eating by cleansing the body of toxin and waste build up. Detox diets are no picnic by any means but at least this one allows you to eat a specific amount of fruit and other vegetables every couple of hours. From what I have read it would still be quite difficult to follow for most. However if you can make it through the three days, the health benefits are some what of a miracle.

Many Fruitarian's who follow a strict fruit diet, claim to have miracle reactions to eating fruit as the staple part of their diets. Jay's 3 Day Diet maybe the better alternative to reap the rewards of following such a recommendation. I don't know what the long term effects of partaking in either fruit diet would be. But I surely know that you can't beat the long term benefits, typically from a heath perspective as to following a well balanced eating plan. If you decide to follow The Fruit Flush diet I would recommend that you proceed to following something along the lines of Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers once the detox phase is over.

We also have a range of proven weight loss, diet and exercise programs available on our website. Rapid weight loss programs such as this 3 Day Diet are never going to last and continued use may cause serious health problems later on in life. A wide variety of carbs, proteins, good fats and sugars as well as fresh fruit and vegetables are renowned sources of foods to help you lose weight. Weight loss programs that include these types of foods have a much higher chance of success.
